La Cacharrería

Top choice in Cáceres


Local flavours and ingredients combine in exquisite, international-inspired concoctions at this packed-out, minimalist-design tapas bar tucked into an old-town house. Solomillo (tenderloin) in Torta del Casar cheese arrives in martini glasses. Delicious guacamole, hummus, falafel and 'salsiki' are a godsend for vegetarians. No advance reservations: get here when the doors open.

In the attached cafe-lounge it's all chandeliers, oil paintings and artesonado (ceiling of interlaced beams with decorative insertions).
